The Lagazuoi circuit

Dolomite panorama meets world history

History does not have to be boring; it can be experienced in person. Thus the panoramic ski circuit on the Lagazuoi Mountain can provide an exciting time trip through the history of the Dolomites.

On this varied ski circuit, you ski from Corvara, Colfosco, La Villa or Badia on the pistes of Alta Badia as far as San Cassiano/Armentarola. From there, shuttle taxis (not included in the ski pass price) take you to the Falzarego Pass (2,105 m) from where the Lagazuoi tour starts in earnest. You can, of course, also get to the Falzarego Pass directly by using local buses.

The Lagazuoi cable car takes you to the eponymous mountain (2,778 m). To warm up, we would recommend the descent on the Lagazuoi piste. The red run goes back to the pass and to the valley station of the cable car.

After a short ascent, the Armentarola piste, 8.5 km long, awaits you. This is one of the most impressive downhill tracks in the Alps and you will be afforded a memorable view of the legendary Fanes valley. The piste leads you through a charming valley with craggy mountain faces and steep ice falls down towards Sass Dlacia. A horse carriage will await the skiers to take them to the Armentarola ski lift, the entrance to the ski area of Alta Badia.

Whilst enjoying your adventure on skis around the Lagazuoi, you may also branch off to explore the winter sports resort of Cinque Torri which you can reach on skis from the Falzarego Pass.
